Hike from Springer to Fontana suggestion needed

[humptrails]

Hey Folks,
Headed to The AT by plane to GA airport, so far it looks like the best route is to stay at the Hiker Hostel who will suttle you to the hostel from airport tram plus morning chow and a suttle up to the springer area the next morning for one fee. That sounds pretty good but what about getting back from fontana to the airport. Any and all Ideals would be appriciated, this will be my first time hiking the AT.
Thanks in advance : )

First thing that comes to mind is check with the Hike Inn

The folks at the Hike Inn are great. You can also check to see if the Hiker Hostel people can take you back, especially if they are going once a day to Atlanta anyway.

you might want to check flights from Asheville NC back to Tex. It might be easier to get to ASH. than ATL.

Another +1 for The Hike Inn.
